team discussion Swansea

Hello mate,

I finished my first season with Swansea last night and finished 10th. I'm at work atm so cannot upload pics but I play like this:

Home:



I play 'Counter', direct passing, high tempo and wide passing with focused passing down both flanks with the wingers cutting inside. I also give the instruction to retain possession in home games.

Away I play a similar system just deeper with this formation:




I sold Nathan Dyer to Spurs for £7.5m but he went on to get signing of the season! Didn't miss him tho with Nem on the left. I also signed Ademilson who did well but struggled by December so I signed Samuel Armenteros who got 12 goals by the end of the season and cost £1.5m. Wanyama from Celtic was also a great destroyer in the middle.

Give me a shout if you need further info.

ThanKs for that il give ot a wirl tonihht, how much do you get as a starting budget? Hopefully il get 30 plus do dyer would come in handy

No worries.

Tbh I can't remember the budget, I think it's around £10m.

Second season I got £20m. You don't need many players, just players to add squad depth.

One tip I'd give is sell Danny Graham ASAP, I waited till January and only got bid £250k for him, sold him in the summer for £2m but he's worth a lot more at the beginning.

I've just finnished my 3rd season.I've finnished 9th,6th and 7th but won the Europa cup in my 3rd season.

I'm trying to do this with a max wage budget of 500k and no player gettin more than 50k a week as I want constantly turn a profit.I may have to make it 600k max as I have great young players but I feel to make the step in the league I need 2 top drawer signings.

I'm just in pre season so I'll update soon.it's a great save.I've bought the stadium and training and youth facilities should b fully upgraded in October.

also got 3 good youth prospects that's come through my youth system

I've kept pretty much to my wage budget.spending just over 500k and Nem is still my highest earner on 46k.I bought back Joe Allen for 4.4 and signed a 5star English centre back and 5 star German left back plus Erick Torres for acm and moved Nem to amr as a inside forward.

won my 1st 2 prem games and got beat 3-2 in the super cup

Never done anything for me anyway.left on a free transfer.

thats good going finnishing 4th second season mate.ive concentrated in upgrading all the facilities and buying the stadium plus getting the junior coaching and youth recruitment to be the best i can.

i have a very young team as i have a few regens already in my 1st team and im just into january of my 4th season.ive not been as tight with wages this season after being comfortably under 500k a week for 3 seasons.
Nem and Destro are on 75k a week now.

Im currently sitting 1st in the league but the top 5 is very tight but hopefully get top 4 this season.im surprised to be doin so well with such a young team tho.cant see me making to many signing tho for afew years and hopefully extend the stadium to a good size.

Ok mate how do I do that as never done it b4?I just finnished 2nd in my 4th season 3 points behind man u.

I'd say the only one of the Brazilians that's progressed fully as been Nem as he's constantly been 1st choice.Ademilson has a great record but Destro has been unbelievable so has been 1st choice.Adryan struggled to play much this season as our attacking options were good as I signed Erick Torres aswell.

I'm actually looking to loan him out so he gets game time. ,
